Product ReviewsWhat Your Doctor May Not Tell You about(TM): Hypertension : The Revolutionary Nutrition and Lifestyle Program to Help Fight High Blood Pressure by Barry Fox, Mark Houston and Nadine Taylor (2003, Trade Paperback)

Lower your blood pressure without drugs!

My acupuncturist recommended this book for me, and I was lucky enough to get a great deal on it on eBay. As soon as I received it, I read about the supplements and specific foods to add to my diet to lower my bp. There is even a whole section on which natural foods will mimic the actions of various high blood pressure meds! The last meds I were on were Angiotensin II receptor blockers, which the author suggests celery mimics. The good news: after about a week of 4-6 stalks of celery a day, cutting back my salt intake drastically, adding several supplements to the ones I was already taking, and taking my acupuncturist's herbal formula, my systolic dropped 20 points and my diastolic dropped 10 points - exactly what I needed to put me within the healthy range. You owe it to your body to get this book and try it for yourself!Read full review...

Lifestyle Treatment

This book gives a very different way of viewing health, without medication, and seems to reflect a healthy lifestyle for issues beyond blood pressure.
